Due to the use of a special technique and ink, the spirit rune on this bluestone board had a huge breakthrough compared to the current mainstream spirit runes. It looked like a single spirit rune, but in reality, it could display the effects of five spirit runes.
What concept was this?
Everyone knew that when inscribing spirit runes on the human body, one had to carefully select suitable spirit runes. Why? Because there was only so much skin on the human body. If one spirit rune was inscribed, one would permanently lose a piece of skin.
And this spirit rune perfectly solved this problem.
"This is a three-dimensional five-linked spirit rune?"
Sun Mo was also shocked. In the past, the highest level of research he had done was to delete spirit runes and increase their effects. He had never thought of something like combining different spirit runes.
One could say that this spirit rune opened up a brand new train of thought for Sun Mo.
"Three-dimensional? Five-linked? Mn, you can understand it this way! "
Bai Wenzhang was a spirit rune ancestor after all and had outstanding intelligence. Although he had never heard of the term 'three-dimensional' before, he could understand its meaning just by thinking about it.
Sun Mo's way of putting it was really very appropriate.
If spirit runes were described as houses, then this spirit rune would be a tall building. The area it occupied wasn't big, but it could accommodate a lot of houses.
Sun Mo sank into contemplation.
Bai Wenzhang looked at Sun Mo and suddenly felt rueful. (Did I stay in the manor for too long that I neglected the development speed of the study of spirit runes?)
(And this Sun Mo, is he the only one so impressive? Or are all the youngsters nowadays so sharp?)
Bai Wenzhang himself was already standing at the peak of the study of spirit runes, conducting the most cutting-edge research on the human body. Hence, he didn't pay much attention to spirit runes.
It was like how a great mathematician would usually research Fermat's Last Law or the Four Color Conjecture. Who would have the time to solve linear equations?
It was too simple!
Seeing that the two of them no longer spoke, the waiter gritted his teeth and braced himself as he carried the dishes over.
He wanted to say, "Sir, your dish is here!", but when he saw that, But when he sensed the atmosphere before him, he suddenly felt very insignificant, like a bug crawling at the feet of a giant. He basically didn't dare to open his mouth.
This was the power of being 'serious'.
"Isn't it very interesting?"
Bai Wenzhang smiled and asked. Sun Mo's appearance caused him to recall the time when he first came into contact with these limestone slabs back then.
"En!"
Sun Mo nodded and blurted out, "Are you selling it?"
"You can have it!"
Bai Wenzhang was very generous.
"I won't accept a reward if I don't deserve it!"
Sun Mo frowned. Although this limestone board wasn't big, the five spirit runes on it were very valuable. Of course, the most valuable thing was still this composition. It represented a brand new train of thought in drawing spirit runes.
"Just take it as a reward for a top student!"
Bai Wenzhang's words sounded very arrogant. One must know that Sun Mo's talent in spirit runes was extremely shocking. However, Bai Wenzhang was still so casual and calm. This inadvertently proved his foundation.
This was confidence, not arrogance.
"I'm sorry, I appreciate your kindness, but please take the things back!"
Sun Mo rejected.
Bai Wenzhang started. After that, he shook his head and couldn't help but laugh. (Hehe, your actions back then are truly the same as mine!)
"Teacher Sun, there are still many spirit runes dug out from the Darkness Ruins in my manor. Do you want to take a look?"
Bai Wenzhang invited.
Sun Mo felt a little moved.
"Some of them are unknown spirit runes that have yet to be deciphered. I believe that to you, they would be a huge fortune."
When Bai Wenzhang spoke until here, he suddenly started to hesitate because he sank into a dilemma.
At the very beginning, he wanted to invite Sun Mo to join the Dragonspirit Manor as an assistant and participate in his research. But after observing Sun Mo earlier, he was very satisfied. In fact, he even had a strong impulse to take Sun Mo in as his disciple.
Any great teacher would have the obsession of passing down their legacy and wanting to write books to establish their own theories.
For people like Bai Wenzhang, this was even more so. But how could a good successor be found so easily?
If Bai Wenzhang died now, the spirit rune research in the Dragonspirit Manor would directly stagnate for over a hundred years. Without him, the remaining people would be like headless flies, not knowing how to advance.
As for Sun Mo, he was a genius who could inherit his legacy and become a leader.
However, Sun Mo was already famous and was a supernova. Would Sun Mo be willing to be his student?
Sun Mo fell silent because the system notification rang out.
Ding!
"Congratulations, because you've deciphered an unknown spirit rune, your proficiency in spirit runes has increased again. 41/100, and you're rewarded with 1x silver treasure chest."
When some knowledge reached a high level, time emblems couldn't be used to increase the proficiency index. Instead, one had to personally practice, learn, and grasp the knowledge until the progress bar reached the maximum value. Only then would one's knowledge increase again.
This also meant that if Sun Mo wanted to become a spirit rune great ancestor, he could only climb up step by step.
"I really want to go, but sadly, I don't have the time!"
Sun Mo rejected.
At the end of this year, it would be the 3-star great teacher examination. Sun Mo had to prepare for it with all his might. That wasn't something that could be passed just by relying on God Hands.
"That's too regretful!"
Bai Wenzhang's expression instantly turned into one of disappointment.
The shopkeeper was holding a bowl of beef noodles and standing not far away. He started to feel conflicted again. (The two of them seemed to be in a dispute. If I go over and interrupt now, would I be beaten up?)
"Regarding Jiang Leng's matter..."
Sun Mo picked up his chopsticks and picked up a piece of beef from the plate. After dipping it in garlic and vinegar sauce, he placed it in his mouth.
"I originally planned to take him back, but on account of your face, I will let Jiang Leng's matter rest here!"
Bai Wenzhang's expression gradually turned cold.
(I've researched spirit runes for close to a hundred years. Do you really think that the Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands can completely heal him? That would be too naive!)
(Sun Mo, I believe that there will be a day when you bring Jiang Leng here to beg me!)
"Hehe!"
Sun Mo had a self-mocking smile. (When did I become so impressive?)
"One last question. Do you know what use this spirit rune has?"
Bai Wenzhang stood up. There was no longer a need to continue the conversation.
"Flight?"
Sun Mo could guess some things based on the effects of the spirit rune, but he didn't dare to believe it. Because, among the saint-tier cultivation arts, there was no such thing as flight.
Moreover, the people of the ancient era actually wanted to use spirit runes to allow humans to soar in the sky?
"Teacher Sun, don't let the things before your eyes restrict your imagination!"
"I feel that spirit runes are a type of external power that can allow humans to break through some shackles, allowing them to understand the world, make use of the world, and ultimately, stand above the world!"
Bai Wenzhang guided Sun Mo. He was very satisfied with Sun Mo's answer, but from his expression, one could tell that Sun Mo felt that flight was a delusion.
Sun Mo stood up and clasped his hands. "Sun Mo has benefited from your guidance!"
Bai Wenzhang casually waved his hands and placed a black-colored metal card on the table. "I'll give you a suggestion. Give up on other subjects and focus on researching spirit runes. You will definitely become a legend that will surpass me!"
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Bai Wenzhang + 100. Friendly (360/1,000).
After hearing the notification, Sun Mo knew that Bai Wenzhang wasn't just saying these words and truly thought this way. This caused him to feel a little overwhelmed by the favor.
Also, what did this card mean?
The size of the card was like an ordinary poker card, but it was made of metal. One side was pitch-black and there was nothing on it, while the other side was a picture of darkness fading away and dawn rising.
Not far away, Yao Guang had finished eating the last tanghulu. When she saw Bai Wenzhang actually giving the Dark Dawn Seal to Sun Mo, she couldn't help but be shocked. She then spat out the tanghulu.
"Interesting!"
Yao Guang's big eyes roamed about, no one knew what she was thinking. However, although the conversation this time around wasn't pleasant, Bai Wenzhang seemed to admire Sun Mo a lot.
"I'm really looking forward to meeting you in the Central Province Academy!"
Yao Guang mumbled.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Yao Guang + 10. Neutral (50/1,000).
"Alright, it's time to go!"
Yao Guang stood up and patted her skirt, preparing to head to Jinling in advance. However, she suddenly saw a young man walking over. She frowned and halted her steps.
"The noodles have already turned cold!"
The constable who was eating dinner reminded the shopkeeper when he passed by him.
The shopkeeper smiled bitterly. Should he go up or not?
Since the other party didn't say, he didn't dare to ask either!
"Who is Yao Guang?"
Sun Mo frowned and looked around in private. However, he didn't find anyone. Instead, a young man whom he didn't know directly sat opposite him.
"Wasting food will incur the wrath of the heavens!"
As the young man spoke, he lifted his plate and chopsticks and started to stuff the beef into his mouth. He casually chewed and swallowed it.
"I can't finish it, but I can take it away!"
Sun Mo was unhappy. (Who are you? What right do you have to lecture me? Could it be that you are here to freeload?
But it doesn't seem like it!
Could it be that you want to defeat me and become famous in a single battle?)
"Burp... cough cough!"
The young man choked and felt extremely awkward. He didn't know if he should swallow the beef in his mouth or spit it out.
"I'll treat you!"
After Sun Mo said that, he added, "If it's not enough, I'll add more!"
"No need, I have money!"
As the young man spoke, he took out 30 copper coins from his pocket and placed it on the table. "This meal is on me!"
After that, the young man continued to eat. After sweeping away all the food on his plate, he asked, "What level of the divine force realm are you at now?"
"Level three!"
It was a fact. He was here to find trouble for him.
"Very good, our cultivation levels are the same. The battle situation is established!"
The young man looked straight at Sun Mo and spoke in a solemn tone, "My surname is Xia, and my name is a single word 'Cu'. I'm a star general under the Daynight Starlord from Dark Dawn!
"The reason I came here this time around is to defeat you!"
The young man stood up and clasped his hands. "Please guide me!"
...
At the same time, Li Ziqi called out to her junior martial brothers and sisters. They were on the way to a gambling house.
Li Zhuifeng was playing a rattle-drum and following behind them from afar.
"Zhuifeng, are we really going to act?"
A young man frowned. "But Lord Headmaster didn't give any orders!"
"The headmaster is so busy, how can he worry about everything? No matter what, you are the leader of the Wolf Troop. You have to learn how to share the burden for the headmaster. "
Li Zhuifeng guided.
